== Introduction  ==
 
In this manual we will show you how to publish accounting information from different middlewares.
 
== General information  ==
 
=== Testing procedure - sending trial records  ===
 
To start sending accounting records:
 
#register 'gLite-APEL' endpoint in GOCDB with host DN information
#*Changes in GOCDB can take up to 4 hours to make it to the message brokers.
#create a ticket to APEL Support Unit in [helpdesk.egi.eu GGUS] with following information:
#*site name
#*host DN
#*middleware type
#the site sends data via the test message brokers.
#when APEL team confirms that everything is OK, site can move to publishing records to production DB.
 
<br>
 
=== Publishing summarized records or single ones  ===
 
Sites can send either. Larger sites are preferred to send summaries.
 
=== The frequency for sending aggregated/summary records to Apel database?  ===
 
We recommend sending data daily for all sites, whether sending summaries or individual records. I think this is in the interests of people who are using the portal so that what they see is accurate. The summaries are for a complete month or the current month so far.
 
=== Testing broker  ===
 
The EGI run a network of message brokers which aim to be more resilient than a single message broker could be.
 
The broker hosts for testing are:
 
*test-msg01.afroditi.hellasgrid.hr:6163
*test-msg02.afroditi.hellasgrid.hr:6163
 
Site should not use SSL for testing. ''use_ssl:false''
 
The queue for testing is:
 
*/queue/global.accounting.cputest.CENTRAL
**(case sensitive)
 
=== Authorization and authentication  ===
 
Authorization and authentication is made by the host certificate (which is signed by a trusted CA from the ca_policy_core package). Certificate should be registered in GOC DB. The certificate must not have the x509 extension: "Netscape Cert Type: SSL Server" because the message brokers will reject it.

== ARC  ==
 
Instructions can be found [http://wiki.nordugrid.org/index.php/Accounting here]
 
<br>
 
== Globus  ==
 
The accounting system for the Globus Toolkit is called [http://gridsafe.sourceforge.net/ GridSAFE]. There is an enhanced package provided by EGCF (formerly IGE). It is located in the EGCF [http://www.ige-project.eu/downloads/software/releases/downloads repository for download/installation]. There is a [http://www.ige-project.eu/downloads/documents/service-reference-cards/gridsafe GridSAFE Service Reference Card] as well.
 
The installation package contains information about how to parse your log-files to obtain the accounting information. Furthermore, there is a tool to create summary records in the APEL format which can be called using the ''ige-apel-client.sh'' script.
 
In order to publish your data to EGI, you need to install the [[APEL/SSM]] tool as well.
 
=== Multi-middleware site  ===
 
No additional requirements.
 
== QCG  ==
 
For QCG Accounting installation and configuration please check [http://apps.man.poznan.pl/trac/qcg-computing/wiki/QCG-Accounting The QCG-Accounting agent]
 
=== Multi-middleware site  ===
 
No additional requirements except: Services of each middlewere should be on separate machines.
 
== Unicore  ==
 
[http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/unicore/index.php?title=ConfigureAPELExport Publishing UNICORE jobs accounting data to EGI accounting system]
